Can you believe it’s the Saturday before Christmas? So hard to believe. We have a few inches of fresh fluffy white snow and it finally feels like Christmastime. Presents are getting wrapped, cards are being sent and we are going out to dinner with friends tonight. So far, a good weekend.

I was so bummed that my phone pictures didn’t post write so I will try them again tonight or tomorrow. Until then, do these 5 things to get you in the holiday spirit!

1. Bake.

A lot. Make cookies for friends, family and neighbors and share the joys of decorated butter and sugar.

2. Write messages and holiday cards to friends and family.

Anna is all about the emails lately.

4. Make these Molasses cookies.

A recipe from my grandma and nana.

They are soft and gingery without being over powering. They taste like Christmas.

5. Decorate your house.

Add more lights, more Santas and a few more ornaments.
